Richardson &Arnold's Union Square

gagement at the Opera House next
week, beginning with Monday eve
ming. They have received very fiat
t-ring notices from the press of the
State and will no doubt give highly
satisfactory entertainment Their
prices-10 cents for children, 20 cents

seats-are certainly reasonable and We
hopo to see the Hall filled.
Rev. r. NJ. Scott, of lola, preached
a couple of very able sermons in the
NJ. +. church here OH Saturday even
ing and S unday morning last. MIR.
5. has been at lola for the past thre e
wears. He cannot be sent back, and
we want to say to other charges, that
any good church securing his services
may consider itself fortunate. He is
an earnest and effective worker in the
cause of his Master, and his family
is a very desirable acquisition 10 any

Our friend Clarence Norton, the Mo-
ran hen-fancier, finds his way straight
to our heart this week by sending us
the names of seven new subscribers,
who. he says, want the paper for the
sake of the Farmers Column. Hasn't
the REGISTER two or three equally
good friends i'm every neighborhood in
the county who will go and do likewise:
They may not be made rich by their
trouble, but they may be certain that
we will bend double to reciprocate
whenever an opportunity offers.
Our readers have doubtless observ-
ed the CONSPICUOUS advertisement of J.
w. Patton's patent adjustable ratchet
shelving irons that has been running
for four weeks past on our last page.
Although only introduced a short time
ago, this device is already being adopt
ed, and is meeting with universal ac-
ceptance. The ease and readiness
with which the shelves can be adjusted
to any width, the durability of the
ratchets, which never wear out, the
economy of room, the ease with which
they can he removed from one place to
another, their superior neatness and
convenience, and above ali their cheap
ness,-all these are qualities which
the ratchets possess and which makes
them superior to any other kind Of
shelving ever invented. Among our
own merchants, A. .. Allen and
Charlie Otton are using them and are
highly pleased. Terms and complete
description may be obtained by ad-
dressing J. w. Patton, Macon, Mo.
Mr.. Bartels informs us that the CT
gar factory which he thought might
nossibly locate here, has been located
in ElDorado and there is now no pros
pect of one coming here. Such being
the case will not "Bramble" excuse
us for not publishing her long letter
protesting against it? We will pre-
serve the letter and when the next
cigar factory comes around it shall be
given in full. In the mean time, as
matter of curiosity, we would be in
terested in having ''Bramble" or any
one else holding similar views. explain
to us i'm just what way the location
here of cigar factory would help to
increase the evil of the tobacco habit.
When anybody can so into almost any
store and buy tobacco in any form ami
in any quantity from a penny up in
value, il looks as though there was lit
tie LETT to be added in the way Of temp
tatiOn.
We begin this week for the benefit of
our Farmers Column, the publication
of complete market reports. In order
that our readers may know whether or
not they may be relied on, We attach

be changed only when the reports are
corrected. Our readers should remem.
Der, however, that these are the reports
ONLY for one day and they must not be
surprised if on coming to town Satur-
day or Monday or Tuesday they find
prices different from those quoted in
the paper on Thursday. We cannot
